Study Details
The current study will compare pembrolizumab (MK-3475) plus maintenance olaparib, versus (vs) pembrolizumab plus maintenance pemetrexed for the treatment of non-squamous NSCLC. The study's 2 primary hypotheses are: 1. Pembrolizumab plus maintenance olaparib is superior to pembrolizumab plus maintenance pemetrexed with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) by blinded independent clinical review (BICR) and 2. Pembrolizumab plus maintenance olaparib is superior to pembrolizumab plus maintenance pemetrexed with respect to overall survival (OS).

Arms
- Experimental: Pembrolizumab + Pemetrexed + Platinum Therapy + OlaparibFor the Induction Phase, participants receive 4 cycles (up to \~12 weeks \[cycle = 3 weeks\]): pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenous (IV) on Day 1 of each cycle (cycles 1 through 4) PLUS pemetrexed 500 mg/m\^2 IV on Day 1 of each cycle (cycles 1 through 4) PLUS platinum chemotherapy, investigator's choice: carboplatin area under the curve (AUC) 5 mg/mL/min IV on Day 1 of each cycle (Cycles 1 through 4) OR cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 IV on Day 1 of each cycle (Cycles 1 through 4). If the participant has a complete/partial response or stable disease to induction therapy, the participant can enter the Maintenance Phase and receive pembrolizumab 200 mg IV on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle for up to 31 cycles PLUS maintenance oral olaparib 300 mg twice daily. The participant can continue to receive maintenance olaparib until progressive disease or toxicity. Across both phases, participants can receive pembrolizumab for a total treatment duration of up to \~35 cycles (up to \~2 years \[cycle = 3 weeks\]).
- Active Comparator: Pembrolizumab + Pemetrexed + Platinum Therapy + PemetrexedFor the Induction Phase, participants receive 4 cycles (up to \~12 weeks \[cycle = 3 weeks\]): pembrolizumab 200 mg IV on Day 1 of each cycle (cycles 1 through 4) PLUS pemetrexed 500 mg/m\^2 IV on Day 1 of each cycle (cycles 1 through 4) PLUS platinum chemotherapy, investigator's choice: carboplatin AUC 5 mg/mL/min IV on Day 1 of each cycle (Cycles 1 through 4) OR cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 IV on Day 1 of each cycle (Cycles 1 through 4). If the participant has a complete/partial response or stable disease to induction therapy, the participant can enter the Maintenance Phase and receive pembrolizumab 200 mg IV on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle for up to 31 cycles PLUS maintenance pemetrexed 500 mg/m\^2 IV on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle. The participant can continue to receive maintenance pemetrexed until progressive disease or toxicity. Across both phases, participants can receive pembrolizumab for a total treatment duration of up to \~35 cycles (up to \~2 years \[cycle = 3 weeks\]).
